Paralogue 23: The Wandering Merchant (Inigo)

Paralogue 23, "The Wandering Merchant," is the mission to recruit Inigo, a charismatic sword-wielding unit who joins the Nohr forces. This paralogue becomes available after Chapter 17 and offers a unique tactical scenario that emphasizes mobility and strategic positioning. Inigo's personal skill, "Charming Smile," provides a small bonus to his allies' hit and avoid when he is adjacent to them, making him a valuable support unit. The primary objective of this paralogue is to defeat all enemy units within a turn limit, typically 15 turns, while ensuring Inigo's survival. The map often features a large, open area with scattered obstacles and several enemy strongholds. Players will encounter a diverse range of enemy classes, including flying units that can bypass ground defenses and heavily armored units that require magical attacks to overcome efficiently. It is highly recommended to bring units with strong magical offense, such as a Sorcerer or a Dark Knight, to deal with the armored threats. Units with high movement and aerial capabilities, like a Pegasus Knight or a Wyvern Lord, will be instrumental in navigating the open terrain and engaging flying enemies. Pay close attention to the enemy's deployment and potential reinforcement points, as they can quickly surround your forces. Utilizing terrain to your advantage, such as using forests for defensive bonuses or choke points to control enemy advances, is crucial for success. Inigo's recruitment is contingent on his survival and the successful completion of the map's objectives. Careful planning of your unit deployment, attack routes, and support unit placement will be key to overcoming the challenges presented in this paralogue and securing Inigo for your army.
